Company Profile: The Spinoff

Founded in 2014, The Spinoff has rapidly established itself as Aotearoa’s leading independent media organization, renowned for its innovative and engaging coverage of current affairs and pop culture. What began as a site dedicated to New Zealand television and culture has grown into a multifaceted media group. The Spinoff offers insightful stories across various domains, including politics, pop culture, Māori perspectives (Ātea), books, and food (kai). The organization’s journey includes launching successful video series and podcasts, expanding into business and politics, and creating acclaimed visualizations. Notably, during the Covid-19 pandemic, The Spinoff collaborated with microbiologist Siouxsie Wiles to produce widely recognized comics explaining the virus, leading to a global communications campaign with the World Health Organization. This success led to the establishment of Daylight Creative, a full-service content studio that produces diverse content such as films, podcasts, and animations. With a mission to be Aotearoa's defining 21st-century media group, The Spinoff continues to create impactful and engaging content, supported by the generosity of its members and partners.
